We designed and developed a unique peer-2-peer marketplace for UAE-based Noones, an app designed to unlock the vast pockets of liquidity and wealth trapped within underbanked communities across the Global South.

From M-PESA, to gift cards, to bank transfer. Noones is the Swiss army knife of payments. Allowing anyone, anywhere in the world to connect, transact, and exchange value via 300+ payment methods that use Bitcoin as their clearing layer.

We created and 0-1 and 1-1000 mobile app, web-app, website, brand and go-to-market strategy with a taskforce of 11x designers and full-stack developers from FINH HQ. The design process took us deep into the heart of the streets, where we strived to capture the nuances of true peer-2-peer trading dynamics amongst the youth of the Global South.

An iterative and fast paced process that allowed us to break down an inherently complex trading mechanic into a simple, joyful and playful experience.

Thanks to the huge team of collaborators and creatives including Filippo Yacob, Homan Cheung and more.

We developed an identity focused on Noones beachhead market, the youth of Nigeria, that blends aspects of 8-Bit gaming, Afro-futurism, and the vibrant colours of Nigeria’s own national identity.

The name Noones or No ones, pronounced how-ever you wish, was deliberately picked to imbue the app with a declarative, rebellious tone the underdog youth of Nigeria could rally behind, giving them a sense of belonging within a grass-roots movement.

We worked with the Noones leadership team to strategise, staff and implement a “boots on the ground” growth campaign, mobilising an army of youth ambassadors across African cities that have now allowed Noones to grow at neck-breaking pace, with over $120M+ in monthly volumes, 50,000+ daily trades, and close to 8 Million daily active users.
